The V-Strom is a very comfortable, upright bike, but for me the bend in my knee was a little much over distance. I fitted the Cymarc Foot Peg andControl Lowering Kit what a stunning difference.1. First Impressions/Unboxing ImpressionsQuality engineering and a quality finish (available in black or silver) and the kit came will all the required parts including a replacement split pin for the backbrake lever (nice touch).2. Initial Setup/InstallationThe installation is extremely straightforward, however, I did have the sense to take a photograph before I started (this was intended for this review), luckyreally because once fitted I instantly realised that I had put the gear linkage back on 180 degrees out which meant downward selection on the gears had theopposite effect (2, 3, 4 etc.) The back brake rod needs extending and this is taken care of by a simple coupler (supplied in the kit). All in all, 15 minutes either side.3. Real World Testing (how did it perform)The difference this small modification made (for me) was a transformation, I can't recommend it enough.4. Specs & Other noteworthy factsSupplied by Cymarc Engineering who are based in the UK5. Tester's Opinion (summary)Superb, buy one!!6. Star RatingI give this 5 Stars.... .1 star = piece of crap2 star = maybe I should have done more research before buying this?3 star = decent bit of kit for the money4 star = better than expected with some nice extras/features5 star = does it have a sister I can marry?!
